Dixie National Forest

During our road trip in US southwest we crossed the Dixie National forest. Just love this photo taken with artistic Z film with the SX-70 Polaroid camera.

Death Valley with the Polaroid

I am sometimes amazed of how the polaroid shots turn out. These shots were taken in monument Valley.

All the shots below were taken with my beloved polaroid 600SE.

I received question about this camera. It is a camera with interchangeable lenses:

- 150mm Mamiya f/5.6
- 127mm Mamiya f/4.7
- 75mm Mamiya f/5,6

 

I really love how this 1st shot came out. The texture of the flag

Ponderosa Point

Another Polaroid shot with the SX-70 Camera from our trip in the US.

I also have some color packs from The Impossible Project. I think it is time try them out.

Road Closed

Ben and I travelled in the US Southwest in April of this year. We came across snow on several occasions. When I say snow, I do not mean the few flakes that I am used to see in Paris…

Again, shoot with the Polaroid SX 70 on Artistic Z film

oops

Sometimes polaroid films are not behaving exactly like you would like. This was the first photo from a new artistic Z pack and part of the chemical elements did not mix.

Though I like it

Artistic Z

During our little road trip, we used the back roads instead of the big highways. We ended up in some very small towns and retro motels… like the Ray Motel.

And we saw many of these old ladies. So glad I could capture them in film.

Both photos are on Polaroid Artistic Z film….

Zion Park

The magic of instant photography…

Our sweet little motel just by the entrance of Zion National Park. I love this retro sign!

Film Impossible PX 100 SILVER SHADE First Flush

Just before packing for our trip in the US Southwest, I ordered a couple of packs of the 1st flush of the Impossible PX 100 silver shade.

Interesting results but they were difficult to handle because of light and the temperature.

Below is my 1st shot with this film.

it took very quickly a bronze toning.

Scanning Polaroid photos goes fast, not much editing. I am enjoying the perfect imperfection of this process.

I particularly like the peel-apart 125i silk films. I bought tons of those. They are my favorite type for color peel-part.
